Push to have Richmond roads closed on Grand Final Day rejected

A push to have major roads in Richmond closed to traffic on Grand Final Day because of safety concerns has been rejected.

The City of Yarra had wanted busy Swan Street blocked off to all traffic except trams between Punt rd and Church Street as Tiger fans flood the street.

There was also a push to close Punt Road between Swan and Bridge Road because of the sheer amount of pedestrians making their way to the MCG and Punt Road Oval.

But VicRoads said standard game day road changes would be in place. The speed limit on Punt Road however will be reduced to 40km/h near the ground and street parking will be removed on Swan Street.

City of Yarra Councillor Stephen Jolly told 3AW there were too many pedestrians to fit onto the footpaths.

"Some of them drinking in high spirits I think we are asking for trouble and I think we have to deal with reality here I understand people have to get to the city during the Grand Final but there are other ways to get to the city in that part of the woods" he said.

Local businesses are gearing up for the giant street party decorating their shops in yellow and black, with unprecedented crowds expected to party in Richmond on the weekend.
